Глава 13

  • 1. And before the feast of the passover, Jesus knowing that his hour hath come, that he may remove out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own who `are' in the world -- to the end he loved them.
  • 2. And supper being come, the devil already having put `it' into the heart of Judas of Simon, Iscariot, that he may deliver him up,
  • 3. Jesus knowing that all things the Father hath given to him -- into `his' hands, and that from God he came forth, and unto God he goeth,
  • 4. doth rise from the supper, and doth lay down his garments, and having taken a towel, he girded himself;
  • 5. afterward he putteth water into the basin, and began to wash the feet of his disciples, and to wipe with the towel with which he was being girded.
  • 6. He cometh, therefore, unto Simon Peter, and that one saith to him, `Sir, thou -- dost thou wash my feet?'
  • 7. Jesus answered and said to him, `That which I do thou hast not known now, but thou shalt know after these things;'
  • 8. Peter saith to him, `Thou mayest not wash my feet -- to the age.' Jesus answered him, `If I may not wash thee, thou hast no part with me;'
  • 9. Simon Peter saith to him, `Sir, not my feet only, but also the hands and the head.'
  • 10. Jesus saith to him, `He who hath been bathed hath no need save to wash his feet, but he is clean altogether; and ye are clean, but not all;'
  • 11. for he knew him who is delivering him up; because of this he said, `Ye are not all clean.'
  • 12. When, therefore, he washed their feet, and took his garments, having reclined (at meat) again, he said to them, `Do ye know what I have done to you?
  • 13. ye call me, The Teacher and The Lord, and ye say well, for I am;
  • 14. if then I did wash your feet -- the Lord and the Teacher -- ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
  • 15. `For an example I gave to you, that, according as I did to you, ye also may do;
  • 16. verily, verily, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his lord, nor an apostle greater than he who sent him;
  • 17. if these things ye have known, happy are ye, if ye may do them;
  • 18. not concerning you all do I speak; I have known whom I chose for myself; but that the Writing may be fulfilled: He who is eating the bread with me, did lift up against me his heel.
  • 19. `From this time I tell you, before its coming to pass, that, when it may come to pass, ye may believe that I am `he';
  • 20. verily, verily, I say to you, he who is receiving whomsoever I may send, doth receive me; and he who is receiving me, doth receive Him who sent me.'
  • 21. These things having said, Jesus was troubled in the spirit, and did testify, and said, `Verily, verily, I say to you, that one of you will deliver me up;'
  • 22. the disciples were looking, therefore, one at another, doubting concerning whom he speaketh.
  • 23. And there was one of his disciples reclining (at meat) in the bosom of Jesus, whom Jesus was loving;
  • 24. Simon Peter, then, doth beckon to this one, to inquire who he may be concerning whom he speaketh,
  • 25. and that one having leant back on the breast of Jesus, respondeth to him, `Sir, who is it?'
  • 26. Jesus answereth, `That one it is to whom I, having dipped the morsel, shall give it;' and having dipped the morsel, he giveth `it' to Judas of Simon, Iscariot.
  • 27. And after the morsel, then the Adversary entered into that one, Jesus, therefore, saith to him, `What thou dost -- do quickly;'
  • 28. and none of those reclining at meat knew for what intent he said this to him,
  • 29. for certain were thinking, since Judas had the bag, that Jesus saith to him, `Buy what we have need of for the feast;' or that he may give something to the poor;
  • 30. having received, therefore, the morsel, that one immediately went forth, and it was night.
  • 31. When, therefore, he went forth, Jesus saith, `Now was the Son of Man glorified, and God was glorified in him;
  • 32. if God was glorified in him, God also will glorify him in Himself; yea, immediately He will glorify him.
  • 33. `Little children, yet a little am I with you; ye will seek me, and, according as I said to the Jews -- Whither I go away, ye are not able to come, to you also I do say `it' now.
  • 34. `A new commandment I give to you, that ye love one another; according as I did love you, that ye also love one another;
  • 35. in this shall all know that ye are my disciples, if ye may have love one to another.'
  • 36. Simon Peter saith to him, `Sir, whither dost thou go away?' Jesus answered him, `Whither I go away, thou art not able now to follow me, but afterward thou shalt follow me.'
  • 37. Peter saith to him, `Sir, wherefore am I not able to follow thee now? my life for thee I will lay down;'
  • 38. Jesus answered him, `Thy life for me thou wilt lay down! verily, verily, I say to thee, a cock will not crow till thou mayest deny me thrice.'
